Her freshman year, she was name to the NFCA All-American 2nd Team as a designated player. DePaul reached the World Series (top 8 teams in the nation) in both Desecki’s Freshman and Sophomore years. Shavaughne was named to the World Series All-Tournament team as a sophomore in 2000 when she tied a World Series record with 4 RBIs in a single game against Alabama. Since college, she has been helping many young players throughout the Chicagoland area with batting and the mental approach to the game. In 2006, she was asked to help assist the UIC Flames for the season and is now helping the Concorida Cougars as an assistant coach this year.
